Chapter 1: Betrayal
(Spyro's POV)
It's been sixty years since Spyro and other dragons killed Malefor and brought peace back to the Dragon Realms and all the hatchlings involved in the war against The Dark Master were now helping keep the peace as Dragon Elders, all except for one.
"Cynder you need to stop with your childish games you're a Dragon Elder now for crying out loud" Tomas said.
"But I don't want to be an elder." Cynder said.
"I agree with you Tomas but you have to remember you acted just as childish when you were her age." Volteer replied.
"Where are you going Cynder?" They asked.
"I'm going home I don't want to have to deal with you guys when I have a headache." She replied.
Cynder had managed to get away from Tomas and Volteer. She was flying as fast as she could. When she reached the edge of the trees she came to a halt. Excitement filled her when she saw Cyril's sleeping form. "Tomas, if I'm unhappy then you shall be to." She whispered as she ran out of the cover of the trees and attacked the sleeping Ice Guardian. Glancing around to make sure nobody saw her kill Cyril. Cynder took off in the direction of The Dragon Temple, she knew she would be safe there as long as the other dragons couldn't pin Cyril's murder on her. She had almost reached the temple when a ball of fire hit a tree right over her head, blowing a large chunk of the tree off.
Cynder spun around her eyes wide and saw me and Flame coming towards her. Cynder made it to the temple only barely dodging one of my fireballs. Once Cynder was at the temple the sound of fireballs stopped completely. A mixture of angry and pained screeches could be heard coming from the trees, which caused every dragon in the temple to come out to see what the commotion was about. Tomas was the last one to arrive by the time he arrived there was already a large crowd of dragons surrounding Cynder. Tomas pushed his way through till he saw the cause of the commotion. Cynder was panting and trembling. "What is going on here?" He asked concerned.
"I dunno Tomas." Volteer said glancing from Tomas, to Cynder. "She came running in like Malefor was chasing her. But it seems Flame and Spyro are really upset about something though I can hear their pained cries listen." The low murmurings of the dragons died as everyone listened to the pained cries of two dragons.
Tomas turned to stare at the dragoness who was still having trouble catching her breath. He watched Cynder take several deep breaths before asking, "What did you do to Flame and Spyro to cause such a pained cry from dragons who haven't cried since they were kids?"
Cynder swallowed hard, and glanced at the outskirts of the temple, where she was sure Flame and Spyro were prowling, before looking back at the Dragon Elder.
"You need to protect me." She whispered. "Why do I need to protect you?" Tomas asked. "Because," she said, her voice taking on a frantic tone, "There're coming to kill me." "Who are trying to kill you?" Tomas asked. "Spyro and Flame are." "Why would they want to kill you, you are their friend." Tomas asked flashing her a worried look. "Nothing I didn't do anything." As Cynder finished a loud painful screech came from somewhere outside the temple.
"Those cries tell a different story." Tomas said worried that the cries were so close. "So let's tell the truth this time." Cynder stared up at Tomas with fear in her eyes. She couldn't tell him. Tomas would kill her if she told him she killed his mate. "I swear I didn't do anything."
"You can't be serious Cynder." Ember said. "Spyro and Flame are out for blood and I think I know why."
"Yeah, we almost got killed ourselves trying to get back home to report on our reconnaissance mission. You had to have done something to make them this mad." The Earth Guardian, Terrador added.
She knew the best option would be to confess but she couldn't bring herself to do it. "I was just so mad that Tomas didn't give me a choice about becoming an elder! There he was and I killed him." She said to no one in particular. "What are you talking about are you going mad?" Tomas asked confused. I'm right here in front of you alive and well."
Cynder stared up at Tomas her lips trembling. She screamed as she saw Flame and I come out of the trees. Everyone turned and gasped as they saw us walking towards the black dragoness hate shining in our eyes.
Cynder wasn't safe. She knew the Dragon Elders would eventually find Cyril's corpse. Jumping behind a tree she only just dodged a fire ball shot by me.
It had been about an hour since the dragons had started up their own search for the truth behind our pain after Cynder was chased out of the temple, by us. I watched as Cynder ran towards the dragon storage cave from my perch on a cliff.
When I finally reached the cave I waited for Cynder to come around the corner that would lead to it. The dragoness ran around the corner and skidded to a halt at the sight of the cave. I waved in greeting a demonic look from the fiery pits of hell burnning in my eyes before jumping on her grabbing her by the arm. Cynder screamed, and began kicking and thrashing in an attempt to get away. Growling in annoyance I broke through the bone. Cynder's scream gave me a large amount of satisfaction. I shook my head as hard as I could until I heard the sound of tearing flesh. Looking at Cynder I saw that I had bitten her arm clean off her body.
"Spyro please let me go you know me I would never kill Cyril without reason." She cried.
"I'll let you go but only because I think Tomas has more of a right to kill you than I do, if I were you I would take this chance to leave and hide myself so nobody could find me." I said.
"Thank you Spyro." She said.
"Just go before I change my mind." I replied sadly knowing I was losing the greatest friend I ever had.
